SA3 BLOG

It’s almost time for the June school holidays and while the temperatures are dropping around South Africa, the actuarial recruitment market is showing no signs of cooling off!

At SA3 we have made it our mission to find out what makes an employer of actuaries in South Africa an actuarial employer of choice and we will be sharing our findings with you during the Breakfast Session at the Convention later this year.

We have a significant number of vacant Actuarial roles that we are working on and the demand for Actuarial skills are the highest that we have seen in many years.

Funda Wande is an influential non-profit organisation in the early grade reading and mathematics space in South Africa.

SA3 was instrumental in the establishment of the Jakes Gerwel Technical School in Bonnievale, with the main aim of restoring self-worth and upskilling our youth.

2020 was marked by the global shock of Covid-19. Imagine a world where there are no hugs, no handshakes, no high fives, where everyone wears masks, office buildings and schools are closed for months.

I think it is fair to say that we did not really know what to expect going into the first ever Virtual Actuarial Convention at the beginning of October.
